Flowers in Antarctica - added to band name list
Antarctic Bloom
They’re the ones
Who like all our pretty cash
And they’ll turn our planet to ash
And they won’t stop until it’s crashed
But they’ll always seize the means
Always seize the means…
We can stand no more
Billionares are whores
Stockpiling all the loot
Planet must go boom.
Since when is unilad a reputable source?
I struggled to find this story on any outlet that isn’t a tabloid, an official-sounding never-heard-before bumfucknowhere gazette or a repeater like msn.
The original article seems to be from the guardian (quoted as such by the university itself) in a far less sensationalist way. It was written so long ago that people still thought Russia was a superpower, unilad decided to sensationalise it and publish it as fresh news one and a half years later.
The story is worrying don’t get me wrong, but this is just doom porn.
I call dibs on some beach front property near the Antarctic Jungle
Great news, all the remaining land will be beach front
Fifty thousand years from now, when humanity clings to existence near the poles on an otherwise inhospitable world, those living in Antarctica will thank their ancestors for making it a lush sanctuary.
We didn’t really need the experts. I could have told you this was a terrible development.
That’s pretty much been the popular attitude anyways
When the soot falls from the first couple Antarctic wildfires sea level rise will happen so quickly even people who’ve been paying attention will be wondering what happened.
